As of 11 April 2023, there are 828 staff in the Passport Service who have been given access to the Automated Passport System (APS).

The Department has policies, processes and procedures in place for the appropriate access and use of APS and monitors the implementation of these on an ongoing basis. 

In relation to your question, an internal process is underway at present and it would not be appropriate for me to provide any details at this time.
